Ma Yan's hand really disgusted the Zhou family. The thieves who stirred them up drove all the way to fight them.

The most important thing is that the Zhou family has to follow. After all, even if they run away, the Grange can't run.

This is all their family business, and they are reluctant to throw it away.

Zhou's private soldiers all went up to the city wall with weapons, and put on a defensive posture in the face of more than 1,000 thieves. And the envoy sent by Wu Wolf to ask for a loan was also beaten by the Zhou family.

Wu Wolf's henchman told Wu Wolf the news, and Wu Wolf was stunned for a while. After reacting, he was directly furious,

"We are fighting to the death for them, is it easy to die a thousand brothers? They won't even let them go! Is it worthy of us? ”

"Tell the back to hold on first, and the brothers in front will attack the city with me to break the Zhou family!"

I can't beat the Han army, but can't I beat you as a family of grange?

Wu Wolf angrily led the thieves to storm the Grange, and Ma Yan saw that the thieves knew each other so well and slowed down the pace of pursuit.

Let the Zhou family touch the thief first, anyway, whoever wins and who loses will not lose. If you're lucky, it's even better.

However, Ma Jian soon found that without the pressure of the Han cavalry, this gang of thieves immediately began to be afraid. Obviously, they lack the minimum motivation to attack the Great Clan's territory.

Since they lacked motivation and courage, Ma Jian also gave them very generously. Then he led the cavalry to rush the thieves, and under the pressure of a battle in the rear, the thieves began to fight desperately against the Zhou family's grange.

After all, it is not very clear how powerful the Zhou family's private soldiers are, but this group of Han cavalry can be sure that they can't be defeated.

As the thieves climbed up and fought desperately, the private soldiers left by the Zhou family were a little unable to hold on. Soon thieves began to climb the Grange and try to escape.

After all, these people are used to maintain law and order, and they are still overstretched when they encounter such a big scene.

"The head of the house! Let's go to the crossbow! If we don't go up, we probably won't be able to bear it! A private soldier of the Zhou family nervously asked Zhou Yun for instructions, he was already sweating in the face of the battle.

"You can't use a crossbow! That's a pole to hand a knife to Ma Tan! If Ma Jian sees that we have a crossbow, I am afraid that the Zhou clan will be blackmailed! Zhou Yun gritted his teeth and refused the request of the military candidate after thinking for only a moment.

The Han law does not prohibit crossbows, and ordinary people can have hand crossbows or light crossbows at home. But the military crossbow is an exception, this thing is lethal and expensive, and no one is allowed to own it privately.

The crime of secretly possessing a crossbow is the same as the crime of secretly possessing Xuanjia, both of which are crimes of rebellion. And at this moment, Ma Tan is taking a hundred people out sightseeing, aren't you taking out a crossbow at this time to send him to death?

Zhou Yun is also a sensible person, and he is very aware of Ma Yan's sinister intentions.

But Ma Yan's use is a conspiracy, a strategy that you know but can't do at all. A large number of thieves who were driven to attack the city climbed up without fear of death, and it was difficult to stop the only private soldiers.

As the situation became more and more troublesome, seeing that the Grange was about to fall, the military Hou made another request.

"Master, make a decision quickly! If you don't make a decision, the castle will fall! The soldiers were anxious, and urged their own masters to give orders.

However, in the end, Zhou Yun made a shocking decision after gritting his teeth.

"Remove all the people, let the road go, and let the thieves pass! If you lose a little finance, you should feed the dogs, don't do it! ”

"It's a big deal to be held accountable by Ma Yan! If the military crossbow armor is exposed, Ma Jian will use the topic to play our Zhou family, and it will be over! ”

There is no way, in the face of Ma Jian being so overwhelming, the Zhou family can only plan for the worst. Even if you have to show a handle, it's the lesser of the two.

In the end, the Zhou family chose to give way and sacrificed a lot of finances to let the Wu Wolf Department go. Seeing this scene, Ma Tan was also shocked by the Zhou family's generosity, and would rather destroy most of the grange than reveal a key flaw.

"But...... These feelings are enough. Ma Tan touched his chin and said to himself. Although I was not very happy with the results, I still achieved the expected goals in general.

With such a reason, Ma Jian is confident that the good reputation of the Zhou family for several generations will be cleaned.

"Soldiers, follow! Kill all these thieves! We're back in town for dinner! ”

"Kill!!"

As soon as the bored rider heard that the meal was about to start, he immediately cheered up. More than 100 light cavalry no longer spared, and caught up with the thief leader Wu Wolf again.

Poor Wu Wolf was driven away for a long time like Ma Tan and herding sheep, and finally was caught up and killed directly. I don't know if he will regret his death before he dies.

After all, not everyone has insurance after death......

easily killed Wu Wolf, and the remaining thieves couldn't gather at all. A group of thieves scattered in a hurry, and fled in all directions.

In this regard, Ma Jian no longer pursued, and did not care about those small shrimps except for capturing a large number of rebels. It is impossible for him to kill these people, but as long as they don't gather together, it only takes a few officials to arrest them, and there is no longer a threat.

Carrying Wu Wolf's head and the nearly 300 thieves who were captured, he slowly returned to Langzhong City.

At this time, the militia in the city, together with Lang Zhongling Zhou Yunquan, were shocked by Ma Yan's performance and were unable to react.

After staying in Yizhou for so long, they rarely encountered such a formidable enemy. In particular, with more than 100 people, he defeated the thieves who were defending the high city in less than a day.

You must know that when Li Yan suppressed the rebellion of thousands of thieves, it took several days. And Ma Tan not only came back in one day, but also drove the thief back and killed a chicken in front of them.

When Ma Jian entered the city, Lang Zhong ordered Zhou Wen to meet Ma Jian in person, and he kept his eyebrows down from beginning to end, and he didn't even dare to look up at Ma Tan.

"The Horse Makes the King Mighty......"

"Don't brag about it yet, what about my army's dinner?" Ma Jian waved his hand, threw Wu Wolf's head underneath, and said with a smile.

"Dinner...... Yes! There must be! I'll be ready in no time! Listening to Ma Yan's gentle voice and thinking about the scene just now, Zhou Wen hurriedly agreed.

"That's what a magistrate should look like." Ma Jian looked at Zhou Wen's back running away, and couldn't help but nod with satisfaction.

"If you don't take the court in your eyes, you can ignore Chengdu's orders because you have a big clan background, which is self-inflicted!"

"A rebellion like this, even if there is another one, I will not be afraid at all!"

As a result, before Ma Yan's words fell, he saw his own guards rushing over at a gallop all the way and shouted loudly.

"General, Hanshou County is in turmoil!"

Ma Tan's smile gradually disappeared, but Liu Yin, who followed behind, laughed out with a "poof".

Look at Ma Tan's crow's mouth......
